Massage therapy is a manually based treatment that focuses on our muscles, joints and systems (circulatory/neural) by applying techniques that help the body return to and maintain its’ optimal health from physical and emotional disharmony. Massage therapists use various hands-on techniques including swedish and myofascial release as well as providing an educational role for clients so that they can take an active role in improving their health.
